Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

Hi all,

I have a male Chinese banded king cobra,

any tips on getting it feeding properly.

Sometimes he eats frozen thawed snakes but not always. Otherwise I just forcefeed him pinks.

How many pinks should I feed at a time?

JUst a general husbandry question, whats the recommended temperature and humidity?

Thanks in advance,

Rowan

The king

There are so many ways to try to get it feeding that you would just wear your self out. None can be said to be 100% effective, but in any instance I would say do whatever it takes. Whatever local feeder snakes are readily avalible keep on hand, and try scenting rodents and hope you find what works for you. Best of luck! Beautiful baby boy!

Well luckily he's eating frozen thawed snakes now but I don't always have available, this last week he ate a red sided garter snake and a horned adder. So luckily he is eating.

Try putting a pink in a piece of shed skin. Should do the trick.

How is it going with the baby King? What did you end up trying and what worked?

Cheers.

Wash the pinks under running water to wash/rinse off as much scent as possible and then cover the head with a hatchling corn/rat snake body segment and leave outside the kings hide, continue doing this for a few feeds while lessening the corn/rat snake segment sizes to just a scented pink, try over a period of 3-5 attempts to using just a lightly scented pinky.
Just leave the prey items in front of the hide, remove if not eaten. That could be something to try.
